“Everything about this fashion show was curated from the luxury bridal gown designs to the custom-made runway music to the hand-selected guest list to the carefully curated menu. We wanted guests to feel fully immersed in a couture fashion experience resembling that of an intimate luxury fashion event often found in New York and Europe,” says Meredith Corning, event planner at Meredith Events.

Guest Commentary

“We were honored to attend this fabulous runway show and were truly stunned by the variety of gowns that came down the catwalk. Nods to different decades kept the crowd at the edge of their seats. We personally fell for some statement sleeves and one silky gown with an ever-flowing cape back. Look out Music City, Nashville might become Couture City thanks to creatives like Tess Mann,” says Abigail and Emily Bache, fashion bloggers at Wanderlust Girls and creators of A M A T O S T Y L E.

“What a great night and beautiful fashion show…” says Brooke Webb, style blogger at KB Styled.

“It was so much fun getting to see Couture by Tess showcase the new Nostalgia and New Discovery collections. You won’t find polyester with appliques. You will find silk jacquard, damask brocades, Duchess satin, silk crepe, and other elegant fabric choices. It was such a fun exposure to the full-design experience,” says Scarlet Paolicchi, author and top mom blogger at Family Focus Blog.
